Methods for resolving your dispute
- Mediation — In mediation, a neutral mediator facilitates a conversation between the dissenting parties until they can come to an agreement. The result of these meetings is not binding, and the parties still have the option of continuing with litigation.
- Arbitration — In this process, a neutral arbitrator listens to the arguments of both sides and comes to a final decision. Usually, this decision is binding and cannot be appealed in court.
- Litigation — If neither mediation or arbitration work for you, your next option is litigation. This is a more contentious, expensive and time-consuming process that involves going to court to settle your dispute.
